a while, but | couldn't make head nor tail
of it. They didn't talk long enough
ut once for me to find out what

and fell to whooping screcchiug, high

o'Brien is rendered an Entllusi-
astic Reception.
The City Ablaye With Torch
lights and Fireworks.
One Place Where Opposition
Did not Show its Head.

MONTREAL, May 1.-The reception
rendered O'Brien tonight on his first
visit was almost exclusively by Irish
societies and other city organizations,
French Canadian associations predom-
mating. The torch light procession
was brilliant affair. At least 5000
men carried torches. AS they filed
past st. Lawrence hall, on the balcony
of which O'Brien stood, there was set
up deafening cheers. On the princi-
pal streets along the route the houses
were illuminated with electric lights,
fireworks flashed, bunting and flags
iloated from the principal buildings
and cheers rent the air. O'Brien
stood on the upper gallery OF the
Lariens hotel, from which speeches
were made. Spread out in front in
the neighboring streets were at least
10000 persons. O'Brien, surveying
the scene, ,turnedto the associated press
reporter and said that he had never
seen anything finer outside Of Ireland.
The little French boys shouted "a bas
Lansdowne," ard thousands of French
citizens took up the cry, and with II
tremendous burst of applause
re-eChOed 1t all over tnc
city. "Down with Lansdowne,"
Land for the people," "Lansdowne
must CO." "Bomc Rule" "God Save
Ireland" "French and Irish join
hands" and "Down with Orangemen,"
were some of the notices on the flags.
When O'Brisn stepped to the front an
indescribable scene followed The
cheering anS waving of hats lasted five
minutes. O'Bricn began by saying
Lord I.ansdowne said in Ottawa
Yesterday our invasion in Canada was
over. | think ii he witnessed this
city tonight, the principal city
of Canada, he would recognize his
troubles in Canada we're not over but
Just commencing. There is a spirit
enkindled IN the hearts of Canada to-
day which will pursue him to the hour
when he takes his departure from
these shores. (Cheers.) And it is a
spirit that all Tells 0rangemen OF
Canada and the drilled enthusiasm ol
the officials at Ottawa will not
quench." O'Brien leaves for Boston

The Surplus Must be Reduced.

There are good reasons for thinking that
the President doesn't want to call an extra
session OF Congress, but the impression is
growing at Washington that he is begin
ming to entertain the opinion that public
interests win require him to call one
about Oct. l. Leading men OF
both parties admit that it is necessary that
something shall be done soon to prevent the
accumulation of an enormous surplus in
the Treasury, The surplus is already large,
and Notwithstanding the fact that the debt
was reduced Sl9O00,00O in March, it
increased 50 ,OOO,0 900. By July l all the
3 per cents viii have been paid. and as no
moro bonds viii mature for several years
it will accumulate very rapidly
after that time unless the revenues are re-
duced
In an interview a day or two ago Senator
Allison, who is a leading member of the
Finance Committee of the Senate, said that
the surplus after July l would accumulate
at the rate of $40, 100000 or $12, 900, 900
month, and that if Congress did not meet
before December it would be at least $780,
000,0O0 more than it is at present before
bill could be passed reducing the revenues.
This would bring about a very great CON
traction in the currency, and could hardly
fail to produce business disasters. This dan
ger which threatens business interests is
very we'll understood by the President, and
may overcome his objection to calling Con
gress together.
There is a great deal to be gained by the
meeting of Congress in October. 1t is be-
lieved that bill could be perfected for re
ducing the revenues by Jan. l, and could be
got through both houses by May 1 If Con
gresS does not meet until December the
House will hardly get organized before Jan
], and there viii be 10 probability of legis-
lation reducing the revenues before Aug /.
Indeed, il will be difficult to get q bill
through by that time, as the appropriation
bills will be in the way and the
members will be SO disturbed by the Presi-
dental campaign that they will be unfit to
give careful attention to the surplus prob
lem.
There are several ways suggested for re-
ducing the surplus, but there are only two
that are likely to meet with the approval
of the people One is by reducing the reve-
nues and.the other is by liberal appropria-
tions for public works. Both must be re
sorted to, however, because the public
would not consent to expenditures that
would absorb the whole of the surplus. All
things considered, an extra session may be
considered as probable

The Railway Murder.

The Railway, n. j., mystery has in all
probability been solved. The girl who was
murdered there more than three weeks ago,
and whose identity has so puzzled the pub
lie, the detectives and the reporters, is be
Geved TO have been one naChristine Larsen,
Danish girl Theevidence which supports
this belief is quite strong. 1t is known that
Ana Christine Larsen came to this country
in ISL with a young man VINO is known as
Carl Woolf, and that they lived together in
the neighborhood Of Railway for several
years The girls reputation was not good,
and the man Woof was all the time trying
to get rid Of her, but was
not successful. On several occasions
he threatened to poison her. Finally he
ran away TO Chicago and she, being in
formed by his friends that he had returned
to Denmark, returned there OF course she
did not find him, and she came back to this
country, reaching New York on March 2.
In the meantime Woolf had returned to
Railway and secured work there. The girl
appears to have quickly discovered his
whereabouts Two days before the murder
Woolf demanded his wages from his en-
ployer and disappeared. All efforts to find
him have failed. The theory is that the
girl went to Railway and met him, and that
he carried ont his frequently expressed pur-
pose of numbering her, and fed. A gentle
man in the neighborhood of Railway, who
knew both the girl and the man well, Us
they were both in his service for long
time, positively identifies the girl.
The only thing that raises a doubt about
the genuineness of the Identification is
the lack of satisfactory evidence Of Ana
Christine Larsen's return from Denmark.
The books at Castle Garden show that a
woman who gave her name as Ana Larsen,
and who described herself as married, ar
rived there on March >, and "a
Pole, at Perth Amboy, says that
he met her on the street in New. York city.
There are some who insist that the girl is
still in Copenhagen, and have written to
her mother there for information. The
chances are, however that the mystery has
been solved. An effort will now be made
probably to find the man Woolf The case
has become a celebrated one because of the
efforts to identify the murdered girl.
